Australia's senior Muslim cleric Sheik Taj Aldin Alhilali has apologised for any offence caused by his comments that immodestly dressed women provoke sexual attacks....
...says the Sidney Morning Herald. The sheik was bailing from a sermon delivered last month in which he "compared women who wore make-up and dressed immodestly to meat that attracted cats."
Meanwhile in Long Beach, NY...
... A high school principal has decreed that Captain Underpants has no place in an institution of learning. Three 17-year-old girls were told to leave Long Beach High School on Wednesday after they showed up on Superhero Day costumed as the subject of the best-selling children's books.
The girls wore white briefs and red capes over beige leotards and nude stockings. "Yes, I know they weren't naked," Principal Nicholas Restivo said. "But the appearance was that they were naked." At least to him.
Captain Underpants, for the hopelessly unhip, appears on his website - which bears the following advisory:
